The Latest on Gov. Scott Walker's State of the State speech (all times local):

10:15 a.m.

Democrats say Gov. Scott Walker will attempt to cover up his failures in his State of the State speech by embracing their ideas that have been ignored for years.

Walker is slated to deliver his speech Wednesday. He said in tweets previewing the speech that he'll tout the state's record-low unemployment, elimination of the state portion of the property tax and his call to require insurance coverage for people with pre-existing conditions.

Democratic Assembly Minority Leader Gordon Hintz says Walker won't talk about his failure to enact a long-term solution to fix the state's roads or past cuts to K-12 education.

Hintz says Walker is embracing issues championed by Democrats for years because he's facing re-election in November.

Gov. Scott Walker will use his State of the State speech to outline an election-year set of priorities built on some long-held Democratic priorities while appealing to conservatives with further toughening of state welfare program requirements.

Walker's eighth State of the State Wednesday comes as the state's unemployment level is tied for record low and as more than a dozen Democrats see a chance to knock off the two-term Republican incumbent in November.

Walker has previewed the themes he plans to cover in the weeks leading up to the speech. They include further overhauling the state's welfare system, bolstering the private insurance market to lower rates, overhauling the state's juvenile prison system, investing more in rural schools and in rural economic development.
